    Just remember to bring up your potassium levels with something like orange juice or something else that tickles your fancy. Otherwise, you're double-screwing your electrolyte balance. Caffeine's diuretic effects cause your body to disproportionately release potassium, and adding water on top will just dilute your electrolytes further.

    I used to get the mocha and vanilla ones exclusively, then I found the hazelnut. Game over.

    ...Crap, I've been dead tired, barely sleeping for a week now, and I have to function in a social atmosphere later today. I was going to convince myself to nap after work, but now I think I might just supplement the nap with one of them.

    The one guy who works on mturk wakes up every morning and says to himself: "How can I make @ChrisTurk miserable today..."

    I'm very pleased with the transition so that guy is doing a terrible job of it.

    Benefit to eating a lot of stuff is that you usually get plenty of misc. nutrients, that's for sure.

    I was sort of kidding, but I can do that because

    1) I don't drink booze at all
    2) I'm semi-active
    3) I don't drink soda
    4) I don't have much of a sweet tooth

    gimme dat cheese

    ^^^ everyone has to know that you bought me this shirt, and it's preettttyyy accurate.
    I love this one too :flail:
    Oh cool, this seems like something I'll tell myself to justify my way out of not drinking water, just like I tell myself when I drink La Croix instead of normal water. I'm seriously the worst at being hydrated. Coffee --> beer --> coffee --> beer --> maybe tea --> coffee.

    Perhaps gambling on sporting events I don't watch would be more lucrative than Turking :emoji_open_mouth:

    I love sparkling waters, but my GF got me a 12-pack of them right after I'd told her that my throat felt like someone took a razor blade to it. She tries so hard, but she really doesn't think things through very often. It's easier for me to not get frustrated by just pretending that it was my daughter that picked it out for me.

    I hate that the batches with 50k HITs, are terribly paid, bad reviews. You would think the requesters would change there pay and work to increase ratings again.
